Tekken World Tour 2019 Announced

The Tekken World Tour 2019 was officially announced today. This new esports tournament series returns thanks to a partnership between Bandai Namco and Twitch. As you may safely assume, Twitch will be the go-to location to watch all of the latest Tekken 7 action. New this year for the World Tour is "more action" along with new locations, returning favorites (whatever that means), and "innovative tournament categories enabling more players to earn Tekken World Tour Ranking Points."

This is all on top of a prize pool that totals over $185,500 (USD). The World Tour Finals will have a $100,000 baseline prize purse for the best players. All of this begins on April 20, 2019 in France. ...

Come February 28 two DLC characters will be released for Tekken 7. They are Negan from The Walking Dead franchise and Julia, a returning favorite from multiple earlier entries in the Tekken franchise.

We have the first screenshots and trailer for these two characters. They are considered "DLC 8" and "DLC 9" and are a part of the Tekken 7 Season Pass 2. They will also naturally be available to purchase individually.

One of these two characters is a bit out of left field, so let's maybe start by talking about Julia.
